Ocean
Ocean speaks to me of the words I'm afraid to confront And then consoles me with her wit Like no soul I see in front. Calm on the outside Carries a storm inside Along with it lies, A ravishing world of strange lives. Never did they see the sun As she held em captive So no human could gauge her depth Or dare to destroy...

Premium Member What Makes Me Smile

Mobile Delight in the twilight
A sweet sword Hanging on my brain door Shining with a mystical might Flavors that are vicious and bright It cuts my invisible emotional ties And takes me on a roller-coaster ride Diving into the ocean of E-life Everything else seems to be a lie A new tool “E-divine” That sets the bar upright The windows shut and doors closed The real world carved is...
